Solotech Acquires Nashville-Based J Sound Services (JSS)

Solotech says that this strategic transaction strengthens its positioning in Nashville, TN, and brings systems integration offerings. “Our vision has always been to offer both sales and systems integration and live productions services in all our offices.

This acquisition will enable Solotech to continue offering a high level of experience in a broad range of venues and markets such as cultural and special event centres, sports facilities, houses of worship, studio and broadcast, hospitality and retail, corporate enterprise, education, and government.

“Solotech is irrefutably growing rapidly and we are thrilled to join the team,” says Jason Spence, founder and president of JSS. “Our clients will continue to benefit from the high quality of products and services they’ve come to expect from JSS, with the added benefits of economic strength and geographic reach of an international and TOP 10 Systems Integrator in North America. This synergy will definitely answer the needs of all our clients, whether they be straightforward or complex.”

The the new extended team in Nashville will be led by Paul Owen, GM.
